Careful What You Wish For
In the aftermath of releasing her last studio album, 2004's luminous Back in the Circus, Jonatha Brooke embarked on a creative journey that paved the way for her latest chef d'oeuvre, Careful What You Wish For. Arguably the most pop-oriented album of Brooke's career, the CD expresses anger and beauty, offers cautionary advice and uplifting redemption. It's edgy and dark, sarcastic about fame and celebrity, yet hopeful despite the ravages of heartbreak. It begins on a highly charged note of dreams unraveling (the title tune) and ends in a safe haven of the sweet and simple life ("Never Too Late, a gem that features Brooke solo on acoustic guitar). Careful What You Wish For features 11 new songs. The sessions, featuring her core band of guitarist Goffrey Moore, bassist Darren Embry and drummer Rich Mercurio as well as various guests, were largely recorded live with minimal overdubs.
